FROM the Standard’a report of the Lacrosse Match between Markdale and Owen Sound we clip the follow- ing paragraphzâ€"“Dr. Mahan, of Durham, was in possession of the whistle and made a' fair and impart- ‘ ial referee. The game all through was remarkably free of diaputes, and two players came under the ' at Durham did not create any desire for practice, and the M-arkdale crowd still had their doubts. The first quarter was finished without another score.” The concluding paragraph of the same article shows the editor’s conceit in the ability of the Markdale boys when they try their skill with Durham. We never do any crowing. Time will tell what an easy walk over they’ll tind when they meet the Durhams. Markdale has certainly an excellent team, and to win a game from such worthy opponents is some- thing to be proud of. This is the Standard’s prediction :-â€"" There is no doubt the landing of the penant will be between Markdale and Durham. and if the Aberdeens would get into l‘condition they would win in a walk. , The players are all strong individual- " ‘ly and can play combination to a finish.” The death of Mr. Andrew Living. ston on Sunday morning laSt removes another pioneer from the township of Bentinck, and deprives the commun- ity of an industrious and highly res. pected citizen of over fifty years’ standing, The deceased was seventy-eight years of age, healthy and robust al- ways, and never to the time of his death did he know what. sickness re- ally meant. His death was‘very sud- den and very unexpected, On Thurs day last he attended a sale in town; on Friday he drove to town on busi- ness; on Saturday all day he was ..,..:.ml.. nnannad on his farm. ate a on Friday he drove to town on busi- ness; on Saturday all day he was actively engaged on his farm, ate a hearty supper and retired in his usu- al health. About eleven o’clock he felt there was something wrong and Medical aid was soon summoned, but to no purpose as he died early Sun- day morning, the immediate cause i being heart failure. ’â€" The deceased was born in County \ ' Armagh. Ireland, At the age of 21‘ he came to Canada and for some:time". J worked in the township of Vaughan, ‘ saving enough money in a couple of , years to assist other members of the " family to emigrate from Ireland. A few years later hejmoved to Ben- tinck and settled near Allan Park' where, about forty years ago. he‘ married Miss Sarah Ann Black, sister ‘ of John Black near Elmwood and: Mrs. Henry Hall, of Owen Sound. ‘ After he was married about tWelve, or thirteen years, he inet with the, sad misfortune to lose his wife, who: left a family of four children, three' sons and one daughter. . In thel course of a few years he again mar-E ried. this time to a widow lady, Mrs. l Mills. who also had four children}: The families were united, and four] additional children were the result! of the union, making twelve in all who remained in the Livingston home in peace and harmony till one by one they set out for themselves. The children are John, of Durham, William, of Bentinck. James, of Paisley. Mrs. Henry Richmond, of Winnipeg, Thomas. of Mt.

MARY GORDON. Teacher. A RECENT visit to Ottawa, to the Presbyterian Assembly and an ad- ditional visit to Malone in Frsnklin County. New York, has caused Mr. W. J. Young, of Glenelg, to say he's glad he lives in South Grey. Evid- ently the appearance of the land along put of the route doesn’t come ‘up to Mr. Young’sides of whet ferm- ing land should be. One of the ben- efits derived from such sti outing is to mske one contented with his own home, seeing thst others are placed under worse conditions. To the Weather. (98 in the elude.) . W. COLLINSON, Teacher. cum The hot weather makes people awfully hotty. The fellow that makes the biggest, noise doesn't always do the biggest dav’s work. The diningmoom girl is anxious to know who the young man is with the black curly hair. Winton, the cheque raiser. is re- ported to be captured at Philadelphia. A similar report was started before, but he Wint on just the same. When your friends come to see you let us know.

Awestern paper heads its birth. marriage and death column thus: ”Yells, Bells, Knells.” The Editor must. be related to the Editor who headed his “Hatched, Matched. Dis- patched." Surely the Flesherton Advance man had no idea of spoiling their Dominion Day Celebration when he deliberately. but without malice aforethought, gave a portrait last week of the energetic president. We referred last week to a business change wherein Mr. Laidlaw sold to Knox, Morgan, of Hamilton, and the latter firm sold to .\. r. James Ireland. It seems the deals can be summariz- ed in one sentence:â€"~“ Laidlaw, Knox Morgan to Irelant ,” Jake Kress is an undertaker. but he undertook a job last week that puzzled him more than anything he undertook since he undertook to he an undertaker. He undertook to ride one of Billy Caldwell’s bronchos. but no sooner had be undertaken the undertaking: than the broncho under- ‘ took to dislodge the undertaker. but [the undertaker wouldn’t give up the undertaking till broncho undertook to land the undertaker into the tele- phone office when he decided to dis- mount and abandon the undertaking. In last week’s issue we had a letter from “ A Traveller” dealing with the disgusting habit of squirting to- bacco juice on our granolithie side- walks. Since that time we have heard some of our citizens refer in- dignantly to the filthy sights to be seen every morning of the week. We believe that nine out of ten of those who indulge in the habit regard it as disgusting. and the other one is so far removed from the idea of civiliz~ ration, and so accustomed to living in dirt that he doesn’t see anything wrong about it. Right here it will not come amiss to say the heating registers in our stores and business places were not put there for spit boxes, as many seem to imagine, and the habit so largely indulged in Of spitting in these heated registers in winter is even worse than on the sidewalks.
